Last month Microsoft announced on the Xbox Press Site that they were going to give Halo fans exactly what they wanted.

Developers 343 Industries were going to add, for free, a new piece of DLC with a new multiplayer mode that thousands of Halo fans had repeatedly asked the games makers to deliver.

And now the wait is finally over, as the world premiere of "Warzone Firefight" was officially shown off during the Halo World Championship 2016 Finals last night

AMBITIOUS: The new multiplayer mode will pit 8 players against an army of enemies

For those asking, "Warzone Firefight" is a combination of Warzone from Halo 5 and Firefight, a very popular mode from 2009's Halo 3: ODST.

The new combination will bring Player vs. Environment (PvE) combat to the Halo 5: Guardians this summer giving gamers "the biggest Halo cooperative experience ever in franchise history."

Within this new mode, up to eight players work together to complete five rounds of increasingly difficult, dynamic objectives set against a timer to emerge victorious.

And in addition to the standard class of enemies, Warzone Firefight will also introduce "Mythic" class bosses to toughen the challenge even more.
